Lemony Snicket meets The Crypt Keeper. The intriguing, all-knowing, mysterious narrator ties together these tales in a nostalgic and yet unique way.

Blackwood has been a favorite go-to every Halloween season for me for many years. And yet, these children's stories were new to me. The way the author rewrote these stories made them much easier to read and more relatable for today's kids. The artwork added the perfect extra touch.

I highly recommend this collection for your middle graders for the Halloween season.
